This example goes to show the flexibility and extent of variant capabilities. Vaccines currently in distribution are much less capable of garnering neutralization in the South African and Brazilian strains. Recently released data on the Astrazeneca vaccine indicate neutralization efficacy of only 10%.

Offices are almost the worst environment for transmission. I assume their executives don't read the news. The vaccines will do next to nothing against the new strains.
Yes they would

Seems to me Washington needs some tax dollar revenue. The last time I drove by Mr. Softee was back in 2000. I played in a company golf tournament and hooked one off the tee into some dudes million dollar playpen. What a tremendous crash of glass. It sounded like the pane of glass broke and fell out of the frame.
No one asked so no one telled. We actually never saw whose home I hit as they are embedded deep in the woods. Reminds me the time I also hooked another one off the 1st tee through a baseball fence through the rear window on a Mercedes.
They put up UV tarps over the fence after that one. Dam fence was over 15' high.
